Meatboy Birthday Cake, Cookies, & More...

For my husband's birthday I thought I'd make a theme from one of his video games. I choose one of my husbands favorite games Super Meatboy. This game has everything; amazing music, difficult levels, and even a love story. Awh.

Are you like me & hooked on the music? Here is a place to download it:

Seriously Forest Funk is genius! I'd be baking and listening to Betus Blues while Andy would be on a certain level, and I would not want him to beat the level or move on because I liked the music so much. lol. (Super Meatboy composer Danny B. Hearts!)

Ok so now you know how awesome Super Meatboy is-if you didn't already.

So onto the cake!

Now I'm not much for cake decorating, but I tried my best on this two tier Meatboy cake.

The lower level was double fudge cake mixed with butter so it would be super moist. The upper tier was a red velvet cake made with butter so it was super moist. This also means...it was horrible to work with, but it was worth it for the taste.

The finale to this super moist cake...made from scratch vanilla cream cheese frosting.

My husband loved it! Which was kinda the piont so I felt great.

The cake next to some Meatboy decorations I made and the Meatboy painting I made for my husband.

He also needed Meatboy sugar cookies. Hand frosted with love!

I think my husband really enjoyed his birthday. I'm so happy!

I get a thumbs up!

Bringing Back The Classics

Brownies and...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I'm bringing back the classics to share at the UMOM charity event on Wednesday!

I'm so glad that Kelly Curly's Sweetheart Bakery can be part of this.

Pics to come!

It's All In the Dough

Or the crust as this case may be.

As my test kitchen is deconstructing a lemon bar recipe I couldn't help but think how important a basic crust or dough recipe is.

This is a picture of some warm vanilla sugar cookie dough.
It truly is the backbone of any good recipe. I guess I'm thinking about this becasue I'm trying to create a new crust recipe. It really is worth the time and the effort.

Because the end product is something that compliments your creation.

Keep cooking & baking my friends!

Hearts!

Roast Dinner

We wanted something healthy, and delicious for dinner.

Hmmmm...what to make? I baked the roast in chicken broth for 3 hours.

I added salt and pepper to it before baking it to give it some flavor.

Served with green beans, and mashed cauliflower. It was a delicious meal.

Best part is my husband figured out how to set the oven to turn on and off automatically.

Now we can have dinner done before we even get home.

Isn't technology wonderful!

Isn't roast wonderful!
